Crossover in the Anime World

The enemies that are detrimental to Arasaka Corporation are either competitors or anarchists.

Although Arasaka Corporation is not a parliament but a company, it is still a thorn in the side of anarchists. So you will still be targeted.

Suzi ordered: "Togusa, investigate Johnny Silverhand's information."

"immediately."

There is a lot of information about Johnny Silverhand on the Internet. He is a native of Night City. He later joined the army and fought in the war, but became a deserter. After returning to his hometown, he formed a band and gradually became popular. Just when he became popular, he wrote a song and exposed his experience as a deserter, which attracted more fans and successfully whitewashed the deserter.

Since then, his popularity has remained high. Three years ago, he suddenly called on his fans to attack Arasaka Company for unknown reasons. He has been hiding since then, and no one knows where he is now.

"There is indeed a lot of doubt. A popular singer can easily lead fans to do extreme things." Bart said: "But where do we start looking? Night City is so big, it is too easy to hide someone."

Duran said: "I suggest pretending to be his fan and sneaking into the fan club. If he is unfavorable to Arasaka Tower, he will definitely not be able to rely on himself. He will definitely mobilize the fans again. Maybe we can meet him."

"It's not easy to become a core fan in a short time," Bart said.

"The fans have no sense of confidentiality. They are not trained warriors. They follow Johnny and do whatever they want to do to vent their dissatisfaction. I don't think you need to be a core fan. You can find out something by joining a fan club." Information. "Dulan has never underestimated the human heart for gossip, especially fans who are ordinary people who definitely like to show off.

Motoko thought it made sense, but said: "If the matter is really that simple, why did Saburo Arasaka travel thousands of miles to invite our Nine Sections to Night City? What secret does he have?"

No one knows either.

"Dulan, you and Togusa go to the fan club first, while the others continue to conduct normal searches." Kusanagi Motoko said.

While Section 9 was taking action, Saburo Arasaka kept staring at Motoko Kusanagi and murmured to himself: "Can you confirm the existence of the puppet master?"

"It's not completely certain yet, but Motoko Kusanagi is the last person connected to the puppet master. If the puppet master is not dead yet, he must be hiding inside her. If she can be caught and dissected, we will be sure."

"Adam Hammer, what do you think? Motoko Kusanagi is the first-generation full-body prosthetic body. Do you think you can defeat her?"

"Although my prosthetic transformation time is shorter than hers, I have more actual combat experience than hers, and my body is full of military parts. Although her prosthetic body is sophisticated, it is by no means a match for military parts. I can defeat her. "Adam Heavy Hammer said.

Saburo Arasaka smiled and said: "Don't worry, if they can find Johnny Silverhand, they will catch them all. It's not in vain that I spend money to bribe the Prime Minister of the island country and let him send people to Night City."

It turns out that everything is a conspiracy, and the target of the conspiracy is the puppet master.

Although Project 2501 is confidential, Saburo Arasaka started from an island country and has many internal agents in the island country. He knows that the puppet master is the white glove of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Puppet Master is a good thing, and he wants it too, so he investigates and finds out that the Puppet Master was finally connected to Motoko Kusanagi. So he thought that the puppet master might not be dead, but hiding in Motoko Kusanagi's body.

Capture Motoko Kusanagi, and if you find the puppet master, you'll make a lot of money. If not, it would be a good idea to use Lesson 9 to kill Johnny Silverhand.

So they monitored Kusanagi Motoko.

Duran and Togusa came to the fan club. They would regularly hold Johnny Silverhand's virtual concerts and play videos of previous concerts so that fans could recall the past together.

Togusa couldn't help but said: "Since it is a virtual concert, why do we need to meet offline? Just connect online and watch it in cyberspace."

"This kind of activity is definitely not just as simple as listening to music, but it must also be accompanied by indescribable illegal activities. Of course, it is fun when people get together. This is called party culture." Dulan said: "We are from other places, and we do as the Romans do. ”

Togusa didn't like this kind of random culture, but in order to investigate, he came to an abandoned factory. The place was simply decorated and turned into a temporary stage. Fans arrived one after another, and Togusa talked with them.

To be honest, Togusa can't get along with the fans at all, because he wears a decent suit, just like an office worker. The fans are all non-mainstream, with tattoos, various rings, colorful hair, smoky and wild makeup, broken and spliced ​​clothes... It can be said that the fans are all dressed up in a fashionable style, which is in line with the characteristics of a spiritual boy.

Togusa is a middle-aged wage earner who has nothing to do with fashion, rock and roll. Everyone looked at him with strange eyes, as if they saw a monster.

And Togusa also felt that the people around him were monsters. If they were dressed like this, wouldn't they be working?

Although there are great differences between the two sides, Togusa still wants to investigate, but everyone is on guard and does not tell the truth at all.

"They all suspected that I had other agendas, and they couldn't get anything out of me." Togusa returned to Dulan helplessly and said, "It's your turn, but I don't think you can ask anything."

Although Duran didn't wear a suit, he was just in ordinary casual clothes, which was still far different from the wild rock fans.

This group of fans seems to pursue the avant-garde and avant-garde, but in fact they are very exclusive.

After all, Night City is also a game where three controls five, and five controls nine. We need to create divisions, so even avant-garde rock fans still need to divide themselves and be exclusive.

Dulan smiled slightly and said, "It's up to me." After that, he took out a stack of beautiful knives and bought them directly.

This is an area where money is everything, so it is natural to use money to solve problems. There will be people willing to sell information for money.

Togusa was speechless and asked, "Did you pay this money yourself or from public funds?"

"I made it myself."

"I'll use my own money to handle the case. I'm convinced." Togusa has to support his family, and his salary has to pay off the mortgage and car loan, but he can't use his money to go to work.

"It'll be good if I can get the information. I'll go back and write a report, and maybe the section chief will reimburse me," Dulan said.

After receiving the money, the fans immediately started chatting and shared a lot of information. Some people said that Jack, who organized the virtual concert, was a core fan of Johnny Silverhand and might know where Johnny was.

"Where is Jack?" Duran asked.

"I don't know. He is an online image. We have never seen him. He is only responsible for planning the show and never shows up. He just directs the work online."

I asked several people, and the testimonies were all similar. Jack was very mysterious, and his identity was unknown, but he often provided money to organize activities. Commands are usually conducted online and will not appear in person.

"It's so mysterious and suspicious." Togusa said.

"It's indeed suspicious. You can check where the equipment for the virtual concert was rented from. The renter should leave records." Duran decided to investigate.

But the name Jack was obviously a pseudonym, and the expenses were paid through a money laundering account, leaving no more clues.

Togusa speculated: "Could this Jack be Johnny Silverhand? It's too mysterious. It's a pity that we can't find more clues. The other party acts secretly and leaves no trace at all."

"It's possible, don't worry now, let's talk about other things after the concert."

The concert started. Although there were only four to five hundred people, the atmosphere was very lively. On the stage is a virtual projection of Johnny Silverhand. He is a gloomy and handsome guy with long black hair. He has a silver mechanical arm and sings very well.

Whether it's exciting rock music or soothing music, it's all very good. Moreover, his lyrics criticize the current ills and awaken everyone's reflection on the current situation. Obviously he is full of dissatisfaction with Night City. This is his hometown. He loves Night City, but Night City disappoints him.

Foreign companies have the upper hand, locals are being squeezed, and this hometown has become terrible.
